Further Education Service

The GetSet Service for Further Education

GetSet's face-to-face counselling will help you decide which College best meets your requirements for A-levels or a Foundation Course if you need to get qualified for university entry in the UK. If you are looking to study at a North American university then an Associate Degree or University Transfer Program at a US or Canadian college maybe right for you.

Furthur Education Colleges in the UK, Comunity Colleges in the US, TAFE Institutions in Australia and colleges in Canada and New Zealand all offer a wide range of vocational and good value for money English language courses.

We can also work with you once you have an offer of a place on your chosen course. GetSet's counsellors have all lived and studied overseas. Our professional counsellors dispense well-informed, independent advice with your interests in mind and our feedback from students is testimony to this.

What can GetSet do for you?

Free English level testing.

If necessary, we will get you enrolled onto an English language course to prepare you for your academic study.

Paperwork - yuck! Relax, we'll do it for you. Administration forms are time-consuming and can be confusing, especially when they're not written in your native language. GetSet's ever-thoughtful staff will handle this chore for you. Leave them with us or, if you have time, sit down and we'll go through it with you.

Peruse our extensive library. We have brochures, pamphlets, prospectuses and course books. We have material on all vocational, Foundation, A-level and Language courses offered by FE colleges in the UK, Associate Degrees & University Transfer Programs offered by US or Canadian colleges and Vocational courses offered by Australian TAFE- to check them out, come on in.

While you're in the office, we can help out with your supporting documentation, your personal statement and references. We will let you know how to package this information so that you present your goals, skills and experiences in the very best possible way for an academic audience.

Native English speakers will edit your personal statement and references where necessary - do not underestimate the value of this service which can make all the difference for your application.

We will send off your paperwork and keep you posted on what stage your application is at.

We will handle all communication with the colleges to which you have applied on your behalf.

We'll give you useful, up-to-date advice on accommodation in the area where you'll be studying and how to get in on college housing if available.

No visa? No ticket? No problem. We can sort those out for you too. GetSet can fill out your visa application for you, organise your plane ticket and arrange an airport pickup to convey you to your new home in the UK.
